ACTIVATING & DEPLOYING THE DATA LOGGER
1. Connect the RFC1000 wireless transceiver (sold separately)
to the Windows PC with the provided USB cable.
2. Additional RFC1000’s can be used as repeaters to
transmit over greater distances. If transmitting over
a distance greater than 500 feet indoors, 2,000 feet
outdoors or there are walls, obstacles or corners that
need to be maneuvered around, set up additional
RFC1000’s as needed. Plug each one into an electrical
outlet in the desired locations.
3. Verify that the data loggers are in wireless transmission
mode. Push and hold the
Wireless
button on the data
logger for 5 seconds to activate or deactivate wireless
communication.
Different wireless channels may be used to create multiple networks in one area, or to avoid wireless interference from
other devices. Any MadgeTech data logger or RFC1000 wireless transceiver that is on the same network is required to use
the same channel. If all of the devices are not on the same channel, the devices will not communicate with one another.
MadgeTech wireless data loggers and RFC1000 wireless transceivers are programmed by default on channel 25.
